    Second-order reaction and integrated rate law

    Hm okay. So since 1 mol P is proportional to 2 moles C and we go from P to C the conversion factor is 2 mol C / 1 mol P, that is [C] = 2 [P] ?

    Second-order reaction and integrated rate law

    That was what I tried in the original post. I mean we have P --> 2C+D. So the concentration of C is 2/3 of the original concentration, that is [C]=2/3 * [P]?

    Second-order reaction and integrated rate law

    Well I have the instantaneous reaction rates $$ -\frac{d[P]}{dt}=\frac{1}{2}\frac{d[C]}{dt}$$ which gives $$k'[P]^2=\frac{1}{2}\frac{d[C]}{dt}\Rightarrow \int_0^t k[P]^2 dt = \frac{1}{2}\int_0^{[C]}d[C]\Rightarrow k[P]^2 t = \frac{[C]}{2}$$ but if it is instantaneous t --> 0 and the above is...

    Second-order reaction and integrated rate law

    I'm really not sure what you want me to realize by this. Then $$-\frac{d[P]}{dt}= k' [P]^2$$ but I don't see how this helps me determine the concentration of [C].

    Second-order reaction and integrated rate law

    Homework Statement The second-order rate constant for the reaction A+2B --> 2C+D is 0.34 dm3/mol s. What is the concentration of C after 20 s and 15 min if the initial concentrations were [A] = 0.027 mol/dm3 and [ B] = 0.130 mol/dm3 Homework Equations The integrated rate law for A+2B --> P...

    Magnetic vector potential in the case of specific current distribution

    I'm trying to solve the same problem and got to the same conclusion. But how do you justify that the surface integral is zero?
